LACUNA COIL Singer: 'Australia… We Are Coming!'

October 29, 2007

LACUNA COIL vocalist Cristina Scabbia and guitarist Cristiano Migliore have commented on the band's participation in the Australian leg of Gigantour alongside MEGADETH, DEVILDRIVER and STATIC-X:

Scabbia: "When I got asked if I wanted to sing a song with MEGADETH on the album 'United Abominations', I couldn't believe it; it was such a big honor for me, and a great new experience, for sure. But now that we've been invited to be a part of Gigantour, I'm even more excited because we will finally be able to show Australia how LACUNA COIL can kick some serious ass! Not only that, but I'll get to see old friends like DEVILDRIVER (and we can't wait to meet the other bands as well...it's gonna be FUN!). And of course, there's also a chance that I just might be performing 'A Tout Le Monde (Set Me Free)' with Dave [Mustaine, MEGADETH mainman]... and if that happens, YOU know you CAN'T fucking miss it!!!!! (Will it happen??? Who knows? You'll have to come to the shows see if it happens or not...). I'm sure I'll see you all there... Australia... we are coming!!!!!!!!!"

Migliore: "After all these years, we're finally coming to Oz! Obviously we're super-excited about it and we couldn't ask for a better chance than to join such a great tour as this! The Gigantour is gonna be the best thing you're gonna see this year so make sure you get your ass there! Who knows when the next time you'll be able to see such a great lineup will be?"
